Noble 16

In Pictures: Mark Noble's final home game

After 18 years in Claret and Blue, Mark Noble took to the London Stadium pitch for the final time as a West Ham United player on Sunday.

The iconic Club Club and legendary midfielder was met with an incredible reception from supporters as he walked onto the field prior to this weekend's Premier League match with Manchester City, as he prepares to hang up his boots. 

The 35-year-old, who has amassed almost 550 first team appearances since his West Ham debut in 2004, was named on the bench against Pep Guardiola's side, although the day has been devoted to Mr West Ham. 

Jarrod Bowen gave the Hammers faithful even more to cheer about in the first half, clinically striking twice to give David Moyes' men the advantage over City. 

City, sitting top of the Premier League prior to Sunday's match, hit back in the second half. Jack Grealish halved the deficit before Vladimír Coufal's unfortunate headed own-goal levelled the tie. 

However, there was even more drama when the away side were awarded a penalty. Riyad Mahrez stepped up, but Łukasz Fabiański made a superb save from 12 yards. 

Noble would be introduced for appearance number 549 in Claret and Blue on 77 minutes, receiving the biggest ovation of the afternoon as he took the captain's armband for a home game for the final time.
